Density estimation via periodic scaled Korobov kernel method with exponential decay condition

Density estimation via periodic scaled Korobov kernel method with exponential decay condition
We propose the periodic scaled Korobov kernel (PSKK) method for nonparametric density estimation on $\mathbb{R}^d$. By first wrapping the target density into a periodic version through modulo operation and subsequently applying kernel ridge regression in scaled Korobov spaces, we extend the kernel approach proposed by Kazashi and Nobile (SIAM J. Numer. Anal., 2023) and eliminate its requirement for inherent periodicity of the density function. This key modification enables effective estimation …

According to the TidBITS article “A Roundup of Vertical Tab Support in Mac Web Browsers” <https://tidbits.com/2023/06/05/a-roundup-of-vertical-tab-support-in-mac-web-browsers/>, Safari supports vertical tabs since version 16.
I did not know it!
I don’t seem to be able to get the Safari vertical tabs to work though.
I can see the list of tabs in the Sidebar.
I also have the tabs displays horizontally at the top of the window (in both Separate or Compact mode).
I was expecting no tabs at the top when using vertical tabs. Is that not what you’d expect when thinking about vertical tabs?

AI Governance InternationaL Evaluation Index (AGILE Index) 2025
The year 2024 witnessed accelerated global AI governance advancements, marked by strengthened multilateral frameworks and proliferating national regulatory initiatives. This acceleration underscores an unprecedented need to systematically track governance progress--an imperative that drove the launch of the AI Governance InternationaL Evaluation Index (AGILE Index) project since 2023. The inaugural AGILE Index, released in February 2024 after assessing 14 countries, established an operational a…

Study of Stability and Consistency of EAS Thermal Neutron Detection at ENDA-64
Introduction:Electron-Neutron Detector Array (ENDA) is designed to measure thermal neutrons produced by hadronic interactions between cosmic ray extensive air showers (EAS) and the surrounding environment as well as electrons around the cores of EAS. ENDA is located within Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO). ENDA was expanded from an initial 16 detectors to 64 detectors in April 2023, so called ENDA-64, and has been running alongside LHAASO. The stability and consistency of neu…

Rewriting the Ruby parser
At Shopify, we have spent the last year writing a new Ruby parser, which we’ve called YARP (Yet Another Ruby Parser). As of the date of this post, YARP can parse a semantically equivalent syntax tree to Ruby 3.3 on every Ruby file in Shopify’s main codebase, GitHub’s main codebase, CRuby, and the 100 most popular gems downloaded from rubygems.org. We recently got approval to merge this work into CRuby, and are very excited to share our work with the community. This post will take you thro…

Optical and Near-Infrared Spectroscopy of the Outbursting Comet 12P/Pons-Brooks
We present optical and near-infrared (NIR) observations of the outbursting, Halley-type comet 12P/Pons-Brooks. Three NIR spectra were obtained during two outbursts in October and November 2023, with the 3-meter Infrared Telescope Facility and the Palomar 200-inch Telescope, respectively. The NIR spectra exhibited absorption features at 1.5 and 2.0 $μ$m, consistent with the diagnostic absorption bands of water ice, superimposed on a red dust-scattering continuum. We find that the absorption ban…
